  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Control of terahertz (THz, 1 THz=1012 Hz) wave is still a big challenge in the THz community. We present here a flexible coding metamaterial, which is composed of “0” and “1”elements, i.e., 1-bit coding case, to shape the reflection and scattering of THz wave. The far-field patterns can be varied by adjusting the digital sequence. We also demonstrate a low-reflection-and-scattering metamaterial, which show a reflectivity less than -10 dB in a wide THz range. Since this metamaterial is made of flexible substrate, it can be conformal to the object, which indicates a widespread application.
